The unenviable position of the Americans

Uncle Sam is in an unenviable position as far as the Middle East conflict is concerned.

With the atrocities committed by ISIS, the US is now blamed for the loss of innocent Syrian and Iraqi lives by being the initial co-sponsor of this militant group. The aim was to topple President Bashar al-Assad who was responsible for the killing of his own people by the thousands using chemical bombs and ISIS was thought to be a good idea at that time to topple the regime.

On the other hand, the Americans could have laid back and said, "This is not our problem", human rights groups and other nations will step up the criticisms on American human rights stand. Some will even called it the American hypocrisy.

Well, looks like, DAMNED IF YOU DO AND DAMNED IF YOU DON'T.

Will Najib do what President François Hollande did?

It's sad that an innocent person has lost his life to a bunch of religious fanatics. Now the BIG question, will Malaysia send in its fighter jets to bomb the daylights out of these b******s or will Bernard Then become just another statistic because he is Chinese. If France is bombing ISIS in Raqqa where the latter's headquarters is located, in retaliation for the killings of its citizens, I am sure Malaysia can do the same with Abu Sayyaf. What say you Najib? What say you Hishamuddin?

RIP Bernard Then

Isn't there anything that is sacred to UMNO Baru anymore?

Despite having spent the money that was meant for the poor and orphans, he has the gall to justify his actions.

To all my Hindu friends, Happy Diwali ....

May the light of this day continues to shine upon you and your family.


The Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement

Important decisions, in Malaysia's case, are already made-to-measure by others.

The Trans-Pacific Partnership treaty legislation is 5,554 pages long, twice that of Obamacare and nearly 3 feet high, filled with 2 million words, it measures exactly 2 feet high and weighs an amazing 100 pounds.

Anyone, thinking Malaysia's Administrators, much less the Politicians, will read that....needs their heads examined.

The most divided nation ....

Let's study how divided we are and the outcome should put us into the Guinness Book of Records for being the most divisive nation.

1. First, we have the Bumiputra and the non-Bumiputras.
2. Then, we have Muslims and the non-Muslims.
3. Within the Muslim community, a sub-division is seen between Sunnis and Shiites.
4.  Amongst the Muslims, it is divided between UMNO Muslims, PAS Muslims and PKR Muslims.
5. If that is not bad enough, we are further divided between Semanjung and East Malaysia with different set of laws, polices and rulings.

6.  With the dichotomy of Bumiputra in place, it is sub-divided between UMNO bumiputras and non-UMNO bumiputras.

Now, the latest, a proposal is being made to divide the nation further and that is, trolleys at supermarkets will be marked for Muslims and non-Muslims usage.  If that is the case, what about the shopping baskets?  What about the plastic bags available to customers to put their purchase in?  I am totally lost for words.  Read news article HERE.


Quite frankly, at the supermarkets, why don't we trade in different currencies as well, one for Muslims and the other, for non-Muslims?  If this proposal was to be adopted and implemented, I am definitely going to shop elsewhere where I don't have to endure religious discrimination.  The authorities must think that the non-Muslims are suffering from some form of skin disease, like leprosy, that the Muslims must avoid at all costs.  What an insult !!!

Just thinking off the cuff.  What if the Hindus too demand for beef-free trolleys?
